The intent of the École Willow Point code of conduct is to establish guidelines for acceptable conduct to maintain a safe, caring, and orderly environment conducive for learning. All 亚洲成人网 are subject to the school's code of conduct while on school premises and during school activities off of school grounds.

All École Willow Point Elementary community members are expected to follow the code of conduct. This document is posted in every classroom and in the main entrance.

We believe that the purpose of any disciplinary procedure is to help our 亚洲成人网 learn appropriate behaviours outlined in the code of conduct.

In addition to the code of conduct, the staff will use the principles of Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) which are to teach 亚洲成人网 social skills within the setting in which they’ll be used and to reinforce and promote positive behaviour. Those social skills are based on the school-wide values of: Safety, Respect, and Responsibility.

EWP Behaviour Expectations

We will also teach the commonly used WITS program to help encourage individual problem solving on the playground and around the school.

• W – walk away
• I – ignore
• T – talk about it
• S – seek help

Statement of Purpose

• To establish and maintain safe, caring and orderly environments for purposeful learning.
• To establish and maintain appropriate balances among individual and collective rights, freedoms and responsibilities.
• To clarify and publish expectations for student behaviour while at school, while going to and from school, and while attending any school function or activity at any location.
• To maintain a data bank of behaviour concerns for planning and teaching purposes as well as student records.

Conduct Expectations

Rising Expectations

At École Willow Point Elementary School we expect that as children become older, more mature and move through the successive grades, they can demonstrate:

• increasing personal responsibility, self-regulation and self-discipline
• increasing seriousness of consequences for inappropriate behaviour

Consequences

The severity and frequency of unacceptable conduct as well as the age and maturity of 亚洲成人网 is considered in determining appropriate disciplinary action. For example:

• responses to unacceptable conduct are pre-planned, consistent and fair and may include completing a reflection sheet, a phone call home, a meeting with parents, and / or a referral to our School-Based Team
• disciplinary action, wherever possible, is preventative and restorative, rather than merely punitive
• 亚洲成人网, as often as possible, are encouraged to participate in the development of meaningful consequences for violations of the established code of conduct
• in-school or out-of-school suspension

The application of this Code of Conduct when involving 亚洲成人网 with special needs shall take into consideration and be consistent with:

• the student’s IEP (Individual Education Plan) and any reference to behaviour
• the student’s IBP (Individual Behaviour Plan)
• the student’s ability to understand or comply with acceptable expectations
• the need to develop an intervention and/or a behaviour plan

Notification

Our school personnel will advise other parties of serious breaches of the code of conduct. For example:

• parents of student offenders(s) – in every instance
• parents of student victim(s) – in every instance
• school district officials – at the discretion of the Principal
• police and/or other agencies – as required by law
• all parents – when deemed to be important to reassure members of the school community that school officials are aware of a serious situation or incident and are taking appropriate action to address it

Recording of Behaviour

Student misbehaviour will be recorded on four increasing levels as follows:

1) Classroom incidents will be recorded and dealt with directly by the classroom teacher or the teacher in charge of the class at the time.

2) Playground, general area incidents and office referrals from the classroom will be recorded on a card file and/or an incident slip by the supervising teacher. Parents may or may not be informed based on the seriousness and/or repetitive nature of the misbehaviour.

3) Incidents requiring out of school suspension will be recorded as in level two above and will also include a formal letter to the parents, with copies to the Director of Student Services and the student file.

4) Very serious incidents may also require the attendance of the student and parents at a meeting of the District Discipline Committee before returning to school.
